Host was very welcoming and accommodating - he made sure we had everything we needed and helped us get our hands on great local food. The cottage has a rustic look but it is very clean and well equipped. The balconies are great and the outdoor grill and eating area is fabulous.

Predivan kraj i predivna kuca za odmor! Mir i tisina, kroz prozor u sobi se mogu lijepo vidjeti zvijezde. Kuca je okruzena prirodom i vinogradima. Sve je cisto i uredno. Jako nam se svidjelo. Sigurno cemo se vratiti. Beautiful surroundings and the cottage. Peaceful and quiet surroundings, from the bedroom window you can see the stars! The cottage is surrounded by nature and has a vineyard. Everything is clean and neat. We loved it and will definitely be back!

IvanaAugust 2014

Nevens father welcomed us with a big smile and a carafe of their own white wine! Despite the language barrier we already felt very welcome. Neven explained everything by phone and was very helpful. Our stay was amazing. So much to do and see just staying put...tennis, ping pong, forest walks, lazing among the vinyards, BBQ and just truly relax and enjoy nature. Regretted not having stayed longer. Neven met up with us on our departure, very easy going, and offered a traditional Croatian heart biscuit to each of our daughters. We all really enjoyed it so much!

AudreyAugust 2016

As soon as we arrived at Neven's cottage we regretted booking it only for one night. The cabin is located on a hill with a tennis court a few steps away, a nice patio with fire place and a great view over the vineyard. It's a quite and private place. Neven is easy going and easy to communicate with. He let us in het cottage and offered us some of his own wine to taste. The kids loved to play tennis (which they did as much as they could) and are already looking forward to returning one day. Highly recommended!

michalAugust 2015

This place is pure magic! It's the middle of beautiful rolling Croatian hills and wine country. Neven met us at the cottage and greeted us with homemade wine made right from the vineyard on the property! We spent our time visiting Trakoscan and enjoying the view from the property. Highly recommend this as an escape and a non "touristy" option to experience true Croatia!

It was a very nice stay at Nevens place. He was a good host,had excellent wine and was available when needed... The house had everything we needed. The only downside is that the Rooms are a litle bit heary,but no big problem. The outside area was suberb, wit the bbq,terraces, tenniscourt and outside shower (second

Apartment Eva was a beautiful getaway in a cute little Croatian town. We were in Europe for 12 nights and stayed at different places nearly every night and this stay was by far the best! Thank you so much for your hospitality!

AmyJuly 2016

Our stay at the Apartment Eva was wonderful. Taking in views of Lepoglava and the rolling hills of Zagorje in the morning while having coffee out on the veranda was a highlight of the space, as was being met by the host to drink a few glasses of homemade wine in the wine cellar. The space was clean and bright, stocked with coffee and tea for the morning. Would recommend highly to anybody passing through the area or staying for a few days. We had planned on only staying one night but loved the apartment and area so much that we decided to stay for two nights.

AlexanderAugust 2016

Andreja was welcoming, answered all our inquiries and everything was done quickly which is important for me when travelling and staying only one night like this time. Neighbourhood is a peaceful Zagorje village, one of my favourite parts of Croatia, between the hills and greenery. Apartment is accurately represented on the photos, a tasteful combination of old and new, with more new than old. It's a perfect place for longer stay, to have a good rest close to nature, but with all needed facilities. We stayed only one night, but I can imagine a vacation there. Oh, check out the terrace with a wonderful landscape view... :)

My place is close to: family-friendly activities, Vindija cave (3 km), Trakoscan castle (15 km) and to the city of Varazdin (25 km). Zagreb is 90 km far. You’ll love my place because of the views, the coziness, the clean air, the wine and the food. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, families (with kids) and furry friends (pets). The house is named 'Domus Antiqua', it is 240 years old and is located in the heart of Zagorje, a picturesque region full of vineyards.

Staying at 'Domus Antiqua' is like stepping into a magical Croatian fairy tale. The cottage is incredible, nestled amidst vineyards on a hilltop with stunning views, peace, and quiet. If you're looking for isolation on the Croatian countryside, this is the place to do it. I can't remember the last time I felt so relaxed, the morning after my first night I was greeted by a gorgeous rainbow! The house itself is so charming, almost everything hand carved with absolutely brilliant craftsmanship. Nikolina and her father were so accommodating and helpful, the nicest ever. They were very understanding when I had a logistical hiccup with a rental car in Zagreb that ended up causing me to miss my first night of the stay. If there are any critiques, they would be minimal... I think I was their first guest to stay there, so there were a couple of really minor things, the biggest of which was spotty internet signal, which they will work on for the future. But I can't emphasize how nice she and her father are and how they did everything to make my stay more comfortable... he even took me to the nearby Vindija Cave and a little wine tasting! I will definitely be staying here again at some point in the future.

Apartment is settled in Krapina, peacful and historical old town in north of Croatia. It is close to the center as well as to the historical old town and neandertal museum(3-5 min walking) It is a perfect place to relax and enjoy peaceful environment

The apartment has 2 bedrooms (with 2 single beds, and double bed). It also has a small balcony. It is close to the bar, bakery an stores as well as to all historical monuments of Krapina. It has free acess to the wifi.

The only stay in 2 weeks in Croatia that disappointed us.... The apartment is in an older style building with a gloomy lobby. Inside everything was ok & reasonably comfortable beds, but the shower was hand-held only, the towel hook fell off the door, the stove hot plates were lukewarm only so no coffee! But the worst was the cigarette smoke wafting up from the bar below. All our clothes stank by the morning.

A nice little apartment with a cool bar next door, which even serves Tomislav ďark beer (rare in Croatian pubs elsewhere!). A good location to stop for a night on the way to Dalmatia. You have to pay a tourist tax of 7 kuna per head though.

Stunning house with awesome views. Darja is a wonderful host and made us (me and my boyfriend) feel very welcome. I would definitely stay here again. I highly recommend this place.

PetraFebruary 2016

This place is beautiful and peaceful. Unfortunately we had only time for three nights there, but we could have stayed much longer and were very sad to leave. Darja and Aleksander have built a beautiful place in the middle of Slovenian nature and you can see and feel the love put in building an arts-place and a quiet living place at the same time. We enjoyed it and we are looking forward to going back too Gorenjski Vrh. Peaple in the neighborhood are very friendly and the lady living next to the house is very helpful and nice. We were welcomed warmly by Aleksander who explained us everything about the house and its background and to sleep in this quiet midst of nowhere surrounded by inspiring art was warm experience for us. There is nothing in the house you don't need and everything you need to have a nice life.

NevenaMarch 2016

We spent a night at Darjas place. Darja seemed like a very nice person and easy to communicate with. The house was on an excellent location with great view and surrounded with wine hills. Interior is brand new mixed with old pieces of furniture and art. Perfect for cycling or just relaxing. I really recommend staying at Darjas place:)

We stayed at this beautiful house for 4 nights with our 2,5 years okd twin daughters and it was truly wonderful! We received a warm welcome from Alexander, who had left us a delicious bowl of local fruit. The hous is as beautiful as the pictures show, but it's even better to be there and to enjoy the great views! Darja was very quick to respond to our questions and the super friendly neighbour helped us out too. We had a fantastic time here. Thank you Darja and Alexander!

If you love ecological architecture in the middle of the green, Daria's place is definitely the place to go. What's more, the view you get over the valley from the house/garden is just stunning ! And at night, the starry sky and the silence are really impressive.

Marija's Family's little cottage is truly amazing. We absolutely loved our stay here-it was undoubtedly one of the nicest places we've been in, and all in the heart of the countryside. We didn't meet Marija, but even so, her family and her were very helpful and welcoming. Don't think twice about staying here-you won't regret it.

The reservation was canceled 16 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

If you are reading this, it means you're already lucky cause you've stumbled upon what is probably the best place for a countryside getaway in Slovenia. The house is perched on a hilltop so it offers amazing panoramic views over the surroundings. The house is small, charming and really cozy and it has everything you might need, including some goodies (some of which home-made and very delicious) that were left by the hosts for us to use. Maja was not only punctual and easy to communicate with, but also very friendly and kind. She and her parents are the owners of a truly heavenly place. I will never forget the nights under the starry sky we spent on the lawn in front of the house or the morning breakfasts among the vineyards. There is no way not to love Slovenia after you stay there. And I cannot say enough to recommend this properly - best airbnb experience for me so far!

Marija and family met us in the local village to take us to the cottage. They were attentive in every way and made us feel very welcome. We were most appreciative of the wonderful honey, and wine produced on from the grapes (on site) and other provisions offered to us. It was only possible for us to stay a short time, but it is a time we will never forget. The cottage was perfect for our needs and the setting exactly as it describes. We had perfect weather to fully enjoy the area. The local people were friendly and helpful. We would recommend the cottage to anyone who has a respect and love of nature and a desire to enjoy the peace and tranquillity which the countryside offers. Thankyou.

That is one of the most beautiful and romantic places that I've ever been to. That is a small cottage with a nice and cosy interior, with a history and with it's own soul. It is situated on a hill and has an astonishing view on the surroundings, sunsets and sunrises are just adorable here. Sunrise is even more beautiful if you are watching it from the hammock :) That is a perfect place to relax and retreat. it is very close to the pure nature, and we saw deers just walking by. We've got a vety fast respond from Marija and her daughter Maja showed us to the place and explained everything around, also Marija presented us a bottle of wine which is made right there from the grapes growing on the hills. By the way there are lots of local wines in the region which are worth to try. Defently I will recommend this place to visit and I do hope that we will be back one day, because we just fell in love with it. It is much more better than it looks on photos. And big big big thanks to our lovely hosts Marija and Maja!!!

A big, spacious two floor house on a private hill surrounded by vinyards with a barn and a garden.

Wine estate on a private hill secluded amongs the terraced vinyards in suthern Styria
This is a stunning 100 year old wine estate that was lovingly renovated into a first class country house. This 12 acres estate includes a large villa with an oak barn to complete the rural picture. This is a luxury property brimming with Central European character. It is set in 14 acres of winding vines, still used to produce local white wines of regional repute. Entering through the double oak doors into the vast living area exposes the airy 60 sq m. living room that remains of double height with a wooden staircase hugging its edge and leading to a minstrel’s gallery. The double panoramic doors lead out to a furnished south facing decking area of 25sqm straddling over the vine terraces below. Wooden balconies run around the first floor offering exquisite views. With a mixture of original features, antique furniture and modern technology, this comfortable home can easily accommodate 2 families. The closest neighbour is 500m away, the nearest supermarket 5 minutes drive away.
The 3 main bedrooms are furnished with antique pieces. Each has their own individual character. All have antique crystal chandeliers and wooden window shutters in the original local design. Antique furniture and wall coverings in each of the bedrooms have been tastefully chosen with stunning effect. The master suite is on the ground floor. It has an original clay stove shared with the main bathroom. Its 2 large windows overlook the front courtyard. The other 2 main bedrooms are on the first floor. They are suites in the truest sense with ante rooms off which lie the bedroom in one direction and private bathroom in the other. In addition to the 2 windows in each room there are doors leading onto the balconies from which the breathtaking views on both sides of the villa look out over the valley, vineyards and neighboring hills. The 4th bedroom sleeps 3 people and is furnished with adult sized wooden bunk beds and a full sized brass day bed.
The main bathroom is on the ground floor. It connects to the master bedroom and is laid with Italian stone tiles and mosaics. The sunken white corner bath is spacious with an antique-style shower unit attached. It overlooks the front courtyard. Down the corridor towards the living area is a self-contained lavatory and sink continuing in the same style and utilizing the same tiles. The 2 further bathrooms on the first floor lie within the 2 bedroom suites. They each comprise large walk-in showers set behind glass walls and surrounded on both floor and walls by Italian tiles. High set windows cast light into these magnificent rooms finished to the highest possible quality.
The house benefits from fittings of the highest quality and carpentry to match the tradition and luxury of the property. The floors throughout the property are made of premier wood. The living and common areas boast antique oak floor or match the character of the house. The main doors and the doors into the cellar are heavy double oak doors. The wine cellars to the property have been lovingly restored and separated into 2 chambers. The first and largest has a newly tiled floor but the arched ceilings and wall recesses remain. Amongst other facilities housed here are 2 travel cots, a high chair and child gates for tenants with small children. A hammock and 2 adult and 2 children's bicycles are available for the use of all tenants. The second cellar acts as a large utility and laundry room with washing machine, tumble dryer, sink and ironing facilities. The property includes 12 acres of lawn, gardens, vineyards, and forest.
Nearest Cities Worth Visiting: Ptuj is the oldest city in Slovenia and was first recorded as a Roman settlement. This small and picturesque town is only 10 minutes drive away, handy for sightseeing as well as shopping. Ptuj castle located on the hill in the middle of the town is now a museum, exhibiting a variety of local antique artifacts: paintings, pictures, masks, furniture instruments, weapons and armor. Visit is highly recommended. Graz, ex. European Capital of Culture is one of the most beautiful towns in Austria. A day trip to Graz can be as much about shopping as dining, or culture. A must see! Once on the way, look at the tourist guide for Osteria available in the house and consider visiting agro-tourist farms for some fine local cuisine. Ljubljana, Slovenia's capital, is a small and picturesque town. A day-trip to the capital makes a delightful destination offering shopping, art galleries, and a variety of bars and restaurants along the Ljubljanica River. Other towns: Bled, Piran, Zagreb, Triest, Venice
Swimming and Trekking in the Alps: There are a number of spas/outdoor swimming pools in Slovenia. The nearest is Terme Ptuj (15min drive), which boasts the tallest water slides in Slovenia. It is a great place for children and adults alike. Details of many other spas are given in the tourists guides provided in H...

A dream, really lets you experience a true Slovenian house. You will need a car to get around but it was by far the best location for the serenity. Will be back!

Great welcome, great home and host available and very nice. Stay on top !

We were lucky to be able to stay at Igor's house for 5 nights over new year's eve this year. The house is located close to Ptuj in a stunningly beautiful landscape of vineyards. It is easily accessible by car and you won't have difficulties finding it thanks to Igor's directions. Driving to Ptuj will take you about 15-20 minutes which is very convenient (you will find supermarkets and everything you need there). The house itself is very quiet and you will definitely find some peace of mind. We were a group of eight people which was a perfect size for the house. There were still empty beds for 2-3 more guests. The house is very beautiful and cosy; we felt at home within seconds. Igor's parents were there to explain everything and Igor was at disposal via phone all the time. However, we didn't miss anything during our stay since the whole house is perfectly equipped. The only thing you should be aware of is the fact that you have to pay for internet access (the costs are bearable though). The landscape was beautiful in winter; we loved strolling around in the vineyards. The house also has a garden and terrace, which I can imagine to be even more inviting during the warmer months. All in all, I can wholeheartedly recommend both Igor and his house! You will be glad to have chosen this accommodation.

CharlotteJanuary 2016

Igor and his family were extremely helpful and assistive, even though we had some "unique" requests for cleaning and cooking, all requests were handled perfectly. The house is beautiful, welcoming, as described, and is a great relaxation escape. Much recommended!

Tatjana's house is perfect for getting away from your everyday routine and to relax a bit. Not just the perfect view of one of the most impressive castles in this region, but the coziness of the house made our little holidays perfect! We stayed only one night, but Tatjana's place is a place where we felt ourselves like at home from the very start till the end! Tatjana is a perfect host, responsive and very helpful so I really recomend this place - it's like in a fairytale! We'll be back! :)

AleksandraDecember 2015

Tatiana's house is very comfy and decorated with very good taste ! It was a great place to enjoy some fresh air away from the crowd and heat of the coast ! I highly recommend it.

HélèneAugust 2016

Tatjana was very welcoming and left us with some homemade Rakja and chocolate. The house was beautiful and the fire in the living room was great to relax by, with a great view of the castle. Thank you Tatjana!

TaraJanuary 2016

everything perfect, even with very little notice Tatiana was very kind and caring, the house is pretty, clean and treated with a breathtaking view, thanks very much for the hospitality

MassimoMay 2015

Tatjana was an absolutely wonderful hostess - she greeted us with a smile and a fire which to a weary family of four was,frankly, a godsend and so very very welcome. Her house is amazing - it all runs true to the photos and was scrupulously clean, really tastefully designed and just plain modern and cosy at the same time. The views to Trakoscan are gorgeous and we felt cocooned inside a fairy tale. Tatjana was incredibly helpful poring over our maps with us while we talked about other places we were thinking of going on our road trip and I thank her for spending that time with us so freely. The slivovitz for us and chocolate for the kids was a gesture typical of Tatjana and we lapped it up. Totally recommend her house and the area - the castle was fascinating and it really is "Sound of Music" country - enjoy a hidden gem in Croatia - we sure did!

MariaSeptember 2014

Its the best place in Trakoscan with views of the Castle. Eassy to get to the lake or nearby spa!!!
